Lab Data

course phy 201

11-20-11 9. I am not 100% that this is all of our labs. Funny how I can't read my own notes. Some of the things we have done in class I wasn't sure about submitting because we answered questions in class. Let me know if I haven't submitted something that I should have. I haven't missed any labs so I should have all the data for everything we have done. Thanks

Lab ExperimentsDOMINO MEASUREMENTS

width=(15/16)inch

thick=(1/4)inch

length=1.87inch

ROTATING STRAP

A metal strap is balanced on a dice and rotated.

Rotating strap with dominos on the ends of the strap

2 turns in 2 seconds before coming to rest

Rotating strap with dominos halfway to the center of the strap

1 turn in 2 seconds before coming to rest

Rotating strap with no dominos

1.25 turns in 2 seconds before coming to rest

CARS ON OPPOSITE SIDES OF PULLEY (ATWOOD MACHINE)

Cars suspended on opposite sides of a pulley with four different forces involved when the pulley is light an frictionless. Tension in the string is the same throughout. Cars are M1 and M2.

TOY CAR COASTING TO REST ON TABLETOP

Car traveled 60cm in 3 sec before coming to rest

assuming mass of car to be 10 g.

CANDY BAR EXPERIMENT

candy bar was suspended from the calibrated rubber band chain and oscillated 150 times in 1 minute

HOTWHEELS ROLLING DOWN RAMP

A hotwheels cars that weighs 50 grams rolls down a ramp inclined at 30 degrees from horizontal.

STEEL BALL COLLIDING WITH MARBLE

A steel ball is released on a 30cm and collides with a marble at the end of another 30cm ramp (ramps are end to end). The marble and steel ball fall vertically to the floor 1 meter.

marble hit by steel ball travels 37.1cm horizontally

steel ball that hit marble travels 25.1cm horizontally

steel ball released on ramp without hitting a marble travels 16.2cm

Steel ball diameter=2.7cm

Marble diameter=2.5cm

POINT OF VIEW OF BALL COLLIDING WITH MARBLE (ELASTIC COLLISION)

A ball and a marble are rolled toward one another on a tabletop and collide.

mass of ball=70g mass of marble=10g

Before Collision After Collision

ball moves 20 cm/s ball moves 3 cm/s

marble moves 60 cm/s marble moves 25 cm/s

1 STEEL BALL WITH AN INCREASING VELOCITY CATCHES UP WITH STEEL BALL AT A CONSTANT VELOCITY

M1 will be steel ball with increasing velocity

M2 will be steel ball with constant velocity

M1 has V0=0 a=24cm/s Vf=48cm/s and travels 60cm in 2.5s

M2 has constant v=7cm/s and is released 4.3 cm above a 30 cm ramp

METAL STRAP, MAGNETS, AND DOMINOS ROTATING ON 2 DOMINO AND A DICE

each domino is .9cm thick

the metal stap is 30cm in length and as a magnet attached to the underside of opposite side of the strap. The strap and magnets are balanced on top of 2 dominos and 1 dice. The strap is pushed by opposing magnetic force with a small magnet to begin rotation of the strap.

Trial 1(no dominos on top of metal strap):

(1/4) turn in 2 sec=360 degree in 6 sec=1 rotation/6 sec

Trial 2 (2 dominos, 1 on opposite sides of the strap):

(1/8) turn in 1 sec=360 degree/8 sec=1 rotation/8 sec

Trial 3 (4 dominos, 2 dominos stacked on top of each other on opposite sides of the metal strap:

(3/16)turn in 2.5 sec=1 rotation/13.25 sec

V0=0 on all trials

PENDULUM

A pedulum has 16 cycles in 10 sec

I'll check later for completeness but your data reports are very good, clearly described and easily readable. I don't see any obvious omissions.
